Hello there, Skylinemaster here with another chapter of Saving the world and other Leviathan plots.
"Speech."
Disclaimer: I don't own anything from Familiar of Zero or Supernatural.
I smiled as I glanced at the group of people standing in front of me.
In front of me are some of the twenty wealthiest people in all of Romalia, if not Halkeginia.
The merchants, nobles, and an assortment of other people who've made their fortune through, less than legitimate means, if you understand what I am saying.
The sun shone overhead as Edgar and the rest of my Leviathan are either preparing the ingredients, or standing guard to prevent anyone from fleeing.
My policy for fleeing is very simple, if anyone in the group I assigned to escape, I'll bib you. Quite an effective deterrent in my opinion.
I glanced at Edgar, who was in Julio's form. He nodded at me, and so I turned to the flock in front of me.
"This is a very special ceremony. All of you are about to be reborn."
I said as all of my Leviathan simultaneously slit their wrists and let black goo fall to their bowls.
"Unum ex supra profanum, hoc sacrificium manifestaturus es te ipsum et in conspectu tuo."
Was shouted in unison by my Leviathan.
The people transformed into Leviathan right in front of me.
Some of them looked around at the sky, others looked down at their hands, but all looked at me when Edgar cleared his throat. I thanked him and then turned to address the crowd.
"Welcome to Halkeginia, an alternate reality where technology is that of Middle Age Earth. Here we will do what we failed to on Earth, and that is to enslave humanity to be our food supply. Now, return to your positions of commerce or nobility, and wait for further instructions. Do not eat anyone, otherwise you will get bibbed."
I took my food and then shut my door. I relaxed on my bed and ate the chowder after glancing at my hard work.
There are three large maps on my desk, one of the current situation of Halkeginia, the second of what my plans for the future will entail, and the third map is of the province of Saxony in Germania .
There is a civil war in Albion, Gallia is controlled by a master manipulator and Void mage, Tristania is the shrimp between the two giants, and Germania is, well Germania.
I'll dispatch seven Leviathan to the continent, two for Albion, two for Gallia, two for Germania, and one for Tristania.
I then focused my attention to the second map. This map doesn't show the borders between the five countries, no. This map is far better as it shows the hundred or so centers I've placed throughout the continent.
Once we've subjugated the Humans, the next step is to herd them into these centers and have them reproduce, ensuring our food supply is limitless. The second map shows the re-districting of the continent for convenience for slaughtering and transportation centers that I've strategically positioned.
I'm getting ahead of myself, aren't I?
That leads me to my third map.
I glanced at the letter that is lying next to the map, for it contains my plans for Saxony.
Saxony will be the testing ground for my plans, and the inhabitants will be the unwitting test subjects. Inside the letter, are my detailed instructions for the Leviathan who I will send to Saxony. Of course said Leviathan will be highly competent, or else.
"Julio."
I called aloud.
A few moments later, Edgar, my right hand Leviathan in Julio's form, walked into the room.
"Yes boss?"
"Did you find out if the Grand Duke of Saxony is still here?"
I asked him.
"Yes, he just finished up the rest of his business here. He will be leaving tomorrow."
I smiled at Edgar's words.
"Oh, is that so? Tell him that he will have a little detour to my office tomorrow. We have important matters to discuss."
Edgar nodded and left the room, taking out the empty tray on his way out.
I smiled at the Grand Duke of Saxony as he walked through the door.
The door shut behind him, revealing the Leviathan I hid behind there. Caius, a Leviathan that took the form of a local wine merchant with a beige complexion and dark hair. Good soldier as he follows orders and is competent to do this.
I shook hands with the Grand Duke as Caius stood glued against the wall, his wand at the ready.
"Is my annulment ready?"
He asked as I smiled.
"Oh no, I have something even better than that."
I said before nodding.
Caius muttered a quick incarnation, causing the Grand Duke to spin around as he grabbed at his wand.
I grabbed his hand and held him in place as a sphere of air surrounded his head. The air vacuum is going to remove all the air from the lungs of the Grand Duke, killing him and yes, this is an assassination.
"You see, I'd like to call in that favor now….."
I said, releasing my grip from his arm. His hands went to his throat as he violently gagged within the sphere of air. I couldn't hear him squeeze and wheeze, but I can tell my his physical reactions that the process was extremely painful.
"…..You would just stand in the way though, and need to be terminated…"
I continued as he collapsed to the ground.
"So do me a favor and die."
I heard the beat of his heart stop as he slumped to the ground. I glanced at Caius, who stopped the sphere of air before walking towards the body.
"The entire thing sir?"
"Consider it a bonus, and a warning, should you fail in your task."
I sternly warned him as I saw him gulp.
Caius crouched down, and opening his teeth, consumed the entire body in one sitting.
Caius straightened up as he morphed into the Grand Duke of Saxony.
I smiled at this and called Edgar into the room. I pulled Edgar in to whisper the next part of the plan to his ear.
"Send Morris to an apothecary. Don't kill the apothecary, just be able to morph into him."
I pulled out the letter and gave it to Caius, or should I say, the Grand Duke of Saxony.
"Morris will be coming with you to Saxony. These are the detailed instructions that I want you to complete. Report any and all results back to me as quickly as possible."
I said to the Grand Duke as he nodded.
"Good. Julio, please see the Grand Duke to his lodgings."
It is nighttime, with the light of the two moons on us.
In front of me are Edgar, Morris, and Caius. Morris is in the form of an apothecary, who is an old man with grey hairs and reading glasses.
I turned to the carriage that is waiting on Caius and Morris, before turning back to the three in front of me.
"Do not fail me. What happens in Saxony will determine my plans for the continent. You must complete your task, or else you will be bibbed. That is all."
Well, I hope you enjoyed that. From here, the story will break from Roman/Pope/Head Leviathan's point of view to the Leviathan minions as they accomplish their tasks. Therefore, the chapters will be labelled by each Leviathan's respective storyline, i.e. Head Leviathan's story I,II, etc.
If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please review and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. Also remember to follow or favor this.
Until next time, Skylinemaster out.
